roll out on the greased glass tray and
leave to prove for another 20 minutes.
When risen, make indentations in the
top with your fingers.
To make the topping, mix the butter
with the vanilla sugar and half of the
sugar. Using two teaspoons, drop small
balls of the mixture into the
indentations. Sprinkle the remaining
sugar and flaked almonds over the top.

Tip
Homemade vanilla sugar:
Cut a vanilla pod in half lengthways and
cut each half into 4-5 pieces. Place in a
lidded glass jar with 500 g of caster
sugar and leave for 3 days to absorb
the flavour. For an even more intensive
flavour scrape the pulp out of the
vanilla pod and add this to the sugar.
